Error: Cannot find module 'https', 2 import { RequestOptions } from 'https'; with Angular 11

[janlycka]

Hi, I get an error trying to use this module with Angular 11. Possibly due to deprecation as RequestOptions have long since been replaced with HttpClient

$ ng serve

2 import { RequestOptions } from 'https';

I'm running Angular 11

$ ng version

I tried replacing RequestOptions with HttpClient but it seems that then I'd have to rewrite the whole module. Perhaps I'm missing something since nobody else on here seems to complain and there are thousands of users. Could you have a look?

Cheers & KR

Yeah, I'm having the same issue

In your package.json you have to add:

"browser": {
    "http": false,
    "https": false
}

But now, i've this problem: ERROR Error: Uncaught (in promise): TypeError: get is not a function

If somebody know how can i solve that...

Were you able to find a solution for this?
